How to get a dark bronze skin tone on photos?


I have read this technique online and would like to share it to you guys. Using CS4 Adobe photoshop do the following:


1. OPEN desired photo

2. New layer > Fill with Black

3. Add a duplicate layer from original photo (BACKGROUND COPY)> Right click (Blending Options) > Luminosity

4. Add a duplicate layer from original photo (BACKGROUND 2)> Brightness and contrast > mix until it appears like this:








5. On same layer (BACKGROUND 2)> Right click (Blending Options) > Luminosity

6. Add a duplicate layer from original photo (BACKGROUND 3)> Right click (Blending Options) > Vivid Light (Opacity 34%)

7. Add a duplicate layer from original photo (BACKGROUND 4)> Filter > NOISE> Add noise
8. Same layer (BACKGROUND 4)> Filter > BLUR> Motion Blur> Angle:0 Distance 38 > Overlay (Opacity 47%)

9. New Layer> Fill with ORANGE> Right click (Blending Options) > Overlay (Opacity 14%)

And there you go.. a dark BRONZE skin tone: (check before and after)
